I often find myself thinking about Nigeria, and about how great we would be if we were not as corrupt, as I hear we are, as Donald Trump says we are. Everybody has his own area of specialty, perhaps our president’s area of specialty is fighting corruption, but he has a point beyond that.
I think truly if we do something about corruption, if we all begin to blow the whistle, things would change. I think a people get the government they deserve. Let us begin to demand a better government. Let us demand as Nigerians better service instead of just complaining about corruption, let us begin to blow the whistle
Today I want us to learn as leaders from the Eagle. We make a lot of animals an example of leadership, the eagle amongst the birds, the lion amongst the animals in the forest or in the jungle, what can we learn from the eagle? What can a leader learn from the eagle? If there is something that sets the eagle apart from every other bird, it is that it’s got keen vision. The vision of the eagle is endowed by nature, it has more cones in its eyes (the rods through which we catch light and see) it has more in its eyes than any other bird. It can spot another eagle 50 miles away, it has 3 -4 times the vision of a human being.
